textiles from our community in Peru: Taquile Island, Lake Titicaca. You can learn more about that part of our lives at our Amigos de Taquile Blog

This juried art and craft show kicks off a festival that has
been going on in Santa Fe, New Mexico, for over three hundred years! We are
located in our usual spot in the very center of the plaza against the obelisk
on the east side.

All three buildings of the beautiful Holy Family campus
overflow with quality handmade items and volunteers serve up delicious homemade
soups and other savory treats in the cafeteria. We expect to be located outside
in the courtyard between the buildings. WE WILL MAINLY BE SHOWING TEXTILES FROM

You will find some bargains if you come early!On Friday the Parade starts downtown at 10am, leading the crowd to Paonia Town Park and all kinds of music and entertainment, including pie eating and coal shoveling contests, a running race, rides and a kid zone--plus a community talent show at 12:30 on Saturday when you can catch me performing my original poetry.
